Sounds good.....my first was a whopping 8gr. and some knowledge as to how not to screw em up as bad this time.

After I spoke with Fox Farms I have come to the same conclusion regarding a nuit deficiency. I started following their feeding schedule today, I will figure out my tap water ph, and give it until the new year, if no change I’ll ditch them and start again. I knew from the get go this was an experiment. While it may not have been a success, my knowledge base as increased exponentially. So, I will follow-up after the New Year. Until then HAPPY HOLIDAYS, EVERYONE! STAY SAFE and BE WELL!

I just started my second grow so you can take that into mind as you read my advice.
I agree with budgal, I’d scrap what you have and start over.
I don’t have a super elaborate or expensive setup. I think if your light is good enough, if not you can get an led for a decent price, mars hydro, spider farmer, HLG, viparspectra are all decent and reasonably priced just read the fine print for the light you like and see what the actual area that it covers for veg and flower. I use 2 or 3 gal smart pots, I don’t like plastic pots but if you do just make sure they have plenty of drainage so they can dry out. Finally check your PH religiously when you water, I try to keep my water at 6.5.
I think with a decent light, soil, pots, and proper PH you will surprise yourself. Keep asking here if you have any questions because there’s a bunch of great people here that can help.

Man so sorry you had these issues. For all i know they got way to hot in that little green house? The water from the get go was not good for weed. I'm thinking these are toast after 3months unless you want to keep trying to bring these back, they are not dead but are starving for food. NPK

01/10/2021 UPDATE!!!
AFTER CONSULTING WITH FOX FARMS I PROCEEDED WITH A TWICE A WEEK WATERING W/NUIT SCHEDULE, INSTALLED A SMALL FAN AND CROSSED MY FINGERS. I have posted the results in pics below (if it will let me). The improvement is remarkable. HOWEVER, notice the shape of the leaves? As the Pineapple Express (right) has grown it has gone from just two points to three points. The Durango OG on the right has been three point for a long time and continues to be so. I’m hoping the next leaf sets on each will be five point. FINGERS CROSSED. Poor little buggars. They was starvin’ and needed a cool breeze. I’ll keep for another month see what happens.
SUPER SHOUT OUT FOR THE ENCOURAGEMENT WHILE I FIGURED THIS ONE OUT. I’m not given up just yet.
Another first time canna grower here. I consider myself a fairly successful grower of many things indoor and out. The canna grow has me perplexed. I picked up a couple of clones back in September. they were very healthy, had great roots and I was excited. Now this was started as an experiment to see if I could be successful. At this point I am a miserable failure. My plants are pathetic. I have read everything I can get my hands on and I’m more confused than ever. I haven’t invested in a full out grow system yet. It’s a fair investment and I wasn’t ready to pull the trigger. I wanted to see if the two banks of LED grow lights would be sufficient to fill the small four shelf 24” x 19” greenhouse I already had. I fitted the greenhouse with quilted insulation, kind they use for those silver fold up windshield screens people use on their dash boards. Plants are in 3 gallon pots, FFO soil, heating mat, humidifier and meter to track both. Lights on timer currently running 18 on for veg stage. I also have a meter to gauge soil ph, water content and light.
Watering has been a challenge. Sadly, I just discovered I should not be using distilled water, I read somewhere else I could use it and that’s what I have been using. My water is very alkaline here in the mountains of central New Mexico and there’s a lot caliche so I was hesitant to use it. I started feeding after three weeks using a reduced, deleted amount of big bloom and watered until it rain out of the pot., twice a week as recommended. But they soil never seemed to dry out in-between and soon the plants began to exhibit peculiar stunted growth and started to look like they might be overwatered or maybe even nuit burned. So I held back on both but the pots never seem to dry out enough to feel light or dry. The surface is dry, but just below the surface it’s moist and the moisture meter indicates moist not wet at the root. No root smell either.
So I ordered a bunch more stuff to complete the set-up, a small personal fan to move the air around the tiny space. I hadn’t been using a fan because my thermometer stays between 70 and 74 degrees so I figured I didn’t need one? But what the hell, I bought a fan and I will vent out the top of the greenhouse. I got a ph test kit, up and down as well as a ph meter.
Now given all of this, I don’t think it should be this difficult to get a damn plant to grow. Mine grow up, but not out. They don’t branch and they are clearly stunted. This is three months growth!!! They leaf sets come out and very quickly the tips turn yellow, eventually the whole leaf. I have many plants in my house and I’m pretty good at this stuff, but apparently not for behold my shame....Last edited by Pineboughgrowgirl; 01-10-2021, 10:27 PM.

HELP!! So early veg, everything has been going great up until the last few weeks ish. When it started to get dry in Oklahoma I noticed some extreme problems with my plants. I’m from Illinois and moved around More wet areas generally, so using a humidifier was never needed for me. But I and some others thought this was a nutrient lockout or burn of some sort, but there’s really no signs of burn on the plants. Just this extremely weird growth. The tops are extremely tiny, and curl and stick straight up at the lights primarily towards the end of the light cycle that day.. I just wanted a second opinion on this because like I said something like this has never happened to me..
I’m running a 315w cmh and a 200 watt led for veg currently.

athena nutrients

5.8 ph, 650 ppm fed every other water, clean ro water every other water.
78-82 degrees and 30-35 percent humidity.
I was told by someone more experienced than me that the low humidity is what’s causing it, and that because of the vpd chart basically my plants are just drying out quick. Does this seem to be the correct assessment?? I’ve never had plants look this bad and am embarrassed to post this lol. Thanks y’all.

What is the proper ppm to maintain in my dwc reservoir? During veg? And bloom?

Looks thirsty to me. Best way to know if they need watered is the lift test I think

Help!
Hi everone, my first post and grow. I have some brown spots on one of my plants ( Anaconda seeds, anaconda auto) have a 4x4 tent with 11 auto plants in 3 gallon buckets. One anaconda auto, one Bcn critical xxl, one auto grande crack and 8 anaconda seeds northern sky.
4x mars hydro 600ts led lights and grow in soil.
The spots are one the anaconda auto mostly on the upper newer leafs, some of the other have som spots but on the lower leafs. Calcium difficiency? Bought some GHS Calmag today. Been using gold label soil A and B, roots, magnesium, Ph down and ultra pk ( only on some plants)Last edited by deee31; 11-09-2020, 11:41 PM.
